Hello David, John & Johnnie:
Regarding the thread on New York aerials, thought I'd put in my $.02
worth to make you aware that we hold the flights flown by the New York
office of Fairchild Aerial Surveys. Unfortunately, flights prior to 1945
did not survive the transfer to Fairchild's California office due to
deterioration of the nitrate base film. Although these flights have yet
to be fully cataloged, they are accessible. I am enclosing an attached
Word document with a chronological listing of flights. This also
includes New York flights that post date Fairchild that are in our
collections. Hope this is helpful & feel free to respond with any
questions. I could also forward similar listings for other eastern
states if needed.
